2013 Condon Prize for Best Student Essay in Psychological Anthropology

The Society for Psychological Anthropology solicits entries for the 2013
Richard
G. Condon Prize for the best student essay in psychological anthropology.

The winner will be awarded $500 and one year's free membership in the
Society for
Psychological Anthropology.

The winning essay will be published in Ethos after working with the Editor to
revise and prepare the final manuscript.

The prize is named for the late Richard G. Condon, whose work included the
study
of adolescence, family, and change among the Canadian Inuit.

Psychological anthropology is defined broadly to include
interrelationships among
psychological, social and cultural phenomena.

Essays will be judged on their relevance to psychological anthropology,
theoretical and methodological strengths, and organization and clarity.

The winner will be recognized at the 2013 SPA Business Meeting in Chicago.
